01:00 - Welcome back, sir.
01:02 (dramatic music)
01:05 - What have you done?
01:07 - What we needed to, in order to save you, Silas.
01:11 - I'm one of them.
01:14 - The logical evolution of mech experiments in biotech.
01:19 Your brain fused with the donor's
01:23 nervous and skeletal systems.
01:28 The perfect meld of man and machine.
01:31 Exquisite.
01:34 Thank you all for your dedication
01:38 and a lifetime of service.
01:40 But I now see more suited to keep the exclusive company
01:49 of Titans.

03:15 - Colonel Leland Bishop.
03:17 (dramatic music)
03:19 - You really mustn't allow yourself to decline.
03:22 - Yeah, Bulk.
03:23 You gotta pull yourself out of this funk.
03:26 - What's the use?
03:28 - You need to regain your strength.
03:30 The time will come when--
03:32 - When what?
03:33 When all of you will need an assist?
03:35 Isn't that what the new guy's for?
03:37 - Hey, Bulkhead, I've been thinking.
03:39 With your injury and all,
03:40 you might wanna take advantage of the armor
03:42 I snagged from Starscream.
03:44 Instant muscle suit.
03:46 - You think I need a crutch?
03:49 (explosion)
03:51 - Bulkhead, I needed that!
03:56 - Out of my way, rookie.
04:03 - He can walk!
04:04 (grunting)
04:17 - Looks like he's fit for duty to me.
04:19 (whispering)
04:23 - You've gotta be kidding, Raph.
04:27 You, of all people, grounded?
04:30 - Big time.
04:32 I misplaced some homework and blew a couple of tests.
04:35 - Translation, A minus instead of A.
04:39 - I'm probably spending too much time at the base.
04:41 - Raphael, I hope you're not on the phone in there.
04:45 - No, Mama.
04:47 - Say hi to B for me.
04:49 Until I improve these grades, I'm off Team Prime.
04:53 (grunting)
04:56 - Just when we get one back, we lose another.
05:13 (beeping)
05:16 - Strange.
05:18 Lord Megatron, it appears that Breakdown's signal
05:23 has popped back online, albeit corrupted.
05:28 - Investigate with caution.
05:30 It may well be an Autobot trick.
05:34 - I certainly hope not.
05:36 Breakdown may act the brute,
05:38 but he's a maestro behind a rotary buffer.
05:41 (dramatic music)
06:09 - Breakdown, where have you--
06:12 - Breakdown?
06:16 What happened to you?
06:18 - Therein lies a tale which won't be nearly
06:22 as interesting to Megatron as this.
06:25 So, take me to your leader.
06:29 - At 1630 hours, a satellite was stolen
06:35 from a high security military vault.
06:38 Surveillance shows the Decepticon known
06:40 as Breakdown at the scene.
06:42 - Haven't seen him in a while.
06:45 - It looks like Breakdown entered the base
06:47 in vehicle mode with someone behind the wheel.
06:51 - A Decepticon paired with a human?
06:54 - And I have a pretty good hunch who.
06:56 The stolen satellite was Project Damocles.
07:00 - Invented by Silas.
07:03 - I guess the former Colonel Bishop wanted it back.
07:07 (mumbling)
07:09 - Yeah, I thought Silas was paste.
07:12 - So did I.
07:13 - Agent Fowler, even if he were alive,
07:16 are you suggesting that Silas has allied Mech
07:20 with the Decepticons?
07:22 I highly doubt that Megatron would entertain such an idea.
07:27 - Why not?
07:28 The Human-Bot Alliance works for us.
07:32 - Most of the time.
07:35 - Snuggard, what is this abomination?
07:39 And why have you brought it here?
07:41 - I am Silas, as in cybernetic life augmented by symbiosis.
07:46 I come with a proposition.
07:48 - This is the human who dissected Breakdown.
07:52 Please, my liege, allow me to return the favor.
08:02 - I propose that you not overlook the one asset
08:05 that provides Optimus Prime an advantage,
08:09 at least on this world.
08:12 - And that would be?
08:14 - The human factor.
08:16 - Look around you, Silas.
08:21 I command an army from a mighty warship.
08:25 What could a human possibly offer?
08:28 - I am no ordinary human.
08:31 - And this is no ordinary weapon.
08:34 Damocles is a particle beam cannon so powerful
08:40 it can slice up the Pentagon like a birthday cake.
08:43 Or give everyone on Mount Rushmore a mohawk,
08:46 all from a satellite in orbit.
08:48 It's the work of a madman, and in Megatron's hands.
08:53 - A threat to anyone, anywhere on the planet.
08:58 - With pinpoint accuracy at the flick of a switch.
09:02 - And what is it that you wish in return?
09:06 - Merely a place at the table.
09:11 - The Khans may have the satellite,
09:15 but they can't use it without the interface code.
09:18 The only existing copy is stored on the secure servers
09:22 at headquarters in Colorado.
09:24 We must keep the code out of Decepticon hands at all costs.
09:29 It's roll time.
09:31 - Yep, yep, yep, I have not yet cleared you for active duty.
09:37 Nor are you ready to roll.
09:39 - Attention, all personnel are ordered
09:45 to evacuate immediately.
09:47 We have a level five radiation leak.
09:52 Repeat, evacuate immediately.
09:56 (explosion)
09:58 the Decepticons have proceeded us.
10:03 (beeping)
10:06 The Decepticons have proceeded us.
10:30 We must secure the command center.
10:33 The Autobots have arrived.
10:43 - Megatron, relax.
10:46 Lord Megatron, Soundwave may need to download the code
10:54 in order to remotely operate Damocles
10:56 from here on your warship.
10:59 But while jacked into the mainframe,
11:01 Damocles is his to command.
11:04 (beeping)
11:08 - Soundwave, prepare to pay the test.
11:27 (beeping)
11:30 (explosion)
11:32 (beeping)
11:35 (beeping)
11:37 (beeping)
11:41 (beeping)
11:43 (beeping)
11:46 (beeping)
11:48 (beeping)
11:50 (beeping)
11:56 (explosion)
12:01 (explosion)
12:16 (beeping)
12:19 - Whoa.
12:26 Promising.
12:35 Fall back.
12:42 (explosion)
12:45 - Ratchet, we require backup.
12:51 - I'm there.
12:52 - You can't get...
12:54 - Can you remotely disable Project Damocles
12:58 under Agent Fowler's advisement?
13:00 - On a human-based computer network?
13:03 Without my backup?
13:05 Without Raphael?
13:11 (explosion)
13:14 - What are you guys doing here?
13:19 - Son, your planet needs you.
13:21 Autobots, we must draw its fire
13:29 to distract from Raphael's efforts.
13:32 - Somehow I don't think that'll be a problem.
13:39 (explosion)
13:42 - Ratchet, you gotta send me in.
13:45 - So you can be an even easier target?
13:48 You have yet to regain your full range of motion.
13:52 - But Breakdown's back.
13:54 He's my arch enemy.
13:56 Come on, even the kids are in on the action.
13:59 - Very well, Bulkhead.
14:03 You are cleared for duty.
14:05 - Yes!
14:06 A duty of my choosing.
14:09 - I'm in, but I can't reach the targeting systems.
14:15 Too many firewalls.
14:16 - Come on, son.
14:17 If the Cods make off with that interface code,
14:20 Damocles will light up the sky 24/7.
14:23 - Let 'em have the code.
14:24 It won't do them any good without the satellite.
14:27 - I can't see our follow.
14:29 - All satellites have maneuvering thrusters,
14:32 so they can adjust their orbits.
14:34 If I can break into the navigation subroutine,
14:37 I can bring the whole satellite down.
14:39 - Great.
14:41 Say, um, which way's the bathroom?
14:45 - What?
14:46 No.
14:47 If my mom sees you--
14:49 - Relax.
14:50 I train in covert ops.
14:52 - I don't care if you were trained by Ninja.
14:55 My mom has eyes in the back of your head.
14:59 [beeping]
15:02 - An intruder in the system?
15:06 Soundwave, we have a breach.
15:09 [beeping]
15:12 - Jasper, Nevada.
15:15 It can only be the Autobots' human allies.
15:18 - Then perhaps you should attend to the matter.
15:22 - Surely one of your subordinates is more suitable.
15:26 - Now!
15:28 [roaring]
15:31 - Clear shot! I'm going in!
15:40 Scratch that.
15:47 [roaring]
15:52 [screeching]
15:55 - Good night, Hacker.
16:04 [beeping]
16:07 [dramatic music]
16:13 ♪ ♪
16:22 [roaring]
16:25 - Good call on curbside, duty wretch.
16:36 [roaring]
16:47 [explosion]
16:50 - Been itching to trade paint with you again.
16:56 Where you been, Breakdown?
16:58 - Be patient.
17:00 I'm about to send you there.
17:02 - You're not Breakdown.
17:05 - But you are Bulkhead,
17:08 and this is the last time you'll interfere
17:11 with one of my operations.
17:14 - Silas.
17:16 - In the flesh, in a manner of speaking.
17:20 [screaming]

17:33 [grunting]
17:36 [roaring]
17:44 [roaring]
17:47 - Bulkhead, do you read? Bulkhead!
17:52 [beeping]
17:55 [roaring]
18:06 [explosion]
18:09 [roaring]
18:12 - Optimus, I fear that Bulkhead requires immediate backup.
18:19 - Ah, where did they hide the substring?
18:22 - FYI, you're low on TP.
18:28 - Reaction time is slow.
18:33 You're favoring your right side.
18:39 - Legs are weak.
18:42 - I'll show you weak.
18:51 - You should have stayed in bed, Autobot.
19:02 [roaring]
19:06 [roaring]
19:09 - Assist! What's the new guy's for?
19:16 - One new guy to another.
19:24 This is your final day on the job.
19:30 [screaming]
19:33 [beeping]
19:36 - They are attempting to disable the satellite.
19:50 Silas, how difficult is it to squash a human child?
19:56 Silas!
20:00 - We have the codes. Then target the intruder and destroy him.
20:06 [beeping]
20:09 [roaring]
20:12 - This is our opportunity, Autobots. Storm the command center.
20:22 - I'm almost there.
20:26 [beeping]
20:30 - Raph, rock on! It's moving!
20:33 - That isn't me.
20:36 [roaring]
20:41 [beeping]
20:50 [beeping]
20:53 - Guys, that's Jasper.
21:11 - I can see my host parents' house.
21:16 - And I can see my house. Right in their target sites.
21:21 - Any time, son.
21:25 - Full thruster burn.
21:28 [beeping]
21:31 [roaring]
21:36 [beeping]
21:39 - Dah!
21:51 - Yes! You're a genius!
21:54 - Rafael Jorge Gonzalez Esquivel.
22:00 - What is going on in here?
22:03 - Study group.
22:06 [roaring]
22:09 [roaring]
22:25 - Yah!
22:32 [roaring]
22:35 - Silas, return to base immediately.
22:40 [beeping]
22:43 [roaring]
22:47 [roaring]
22:58 [beeping]
23:01 - Looks like someone's big plan just burned up in re-entry.
23:12 - And for the record, I studied every one of the wrecker's battles.
23:20 - There's hope for you yet, newbie.
23:24 [beeping]
23:27 - Silas!
23:38 - You have earned your place at the table.
23:42 - Lord Megatron, I am honored.
23:46 - Knockout's dissection table.
23:51 [rumbling]
23:54 - Breakdown would be tickled.
23:58 - No, Lord Megatron. Why?
24:02 - Because Damocles was the best you had to offer, and it is no more.
24:09 - The human factor did indeed tip the scales in favor of my enemies.
24:18 [rumbling]
24:21 [gasping]
24:26 - He will be a fascinating case for study.
24:30 - I will leave no fiber or fiber optic unexamined.
24:36 - No, no, no.
24:40 Megatron, I'm here to serve you.
24:46 - No!
24:49 No!
24:51 No! No!
